"Jim and the entire staff at the Barrow Mansion went above and beyond to ensure my wedding was everything I had hoped for. The venue itself is gorgeous, and while the venue itself is largely DIY, they do provide a post-event cleaning package, and gladly provide vendors that have worked with them in the past.
The space itself was perfect for my 80 person wedding, and the rooms provided a natural flow throughout the evening. As a bonus, their antique bowling ally was a huge hit at the after party!"
